We can only hope Danny that the death toll is not as high as first feared.

It makes you wonder Jen if money is the sole reason behind these projects.

Two headed baby whale washed up on beach

Poor wee thing. :( I don't know much more about this story apart from the fact that it looked as though it was stillborn, and that it was washed up on a beach in California somewhere, but I thought it was interesting.

Very sad to see these mutations and invariably the individual species will not survive. Thanks for the link Sarah.

i don't know what to make of that link , Sarah ... but there are some pretty awful comments . I think we all know that water quality ( whatever the pollutant ) is responsible for many abnormalities :(
